Name: New client onboarding When a new client's intake form arrives: 1. Save the client in company memory: name, site, size, goals, contacts, tone, rules and things to avoid. 2. Check the access list against what we need: [Shopify staff, GA4, Search Console, brand folder]. Mark what is missing. 3. Create our kickoff tasks in [project / list] from this checklist: [paste your checklist]. Set owners from the account team in memory. 4. Add one task per missing access, owned by the account manager, due in 3 days. 5. Draft a welcome email: thanks, what we still need with a short how-to, kickoff date, agenda. 6. Wait for approval before creating tasks or sending. Never store passwords from the form. If a password was sent, tell the account manager to reset it.

What stays under your control
- The client form is yours, and an admin approves it before it goes live.
- No passwords travel by form. Access is shared through each tool, never in the form.
- Nothing is created or sent before a yes.
Good to know
The client still has to add you to their tools. The agent only tracks what is missing and chases it in the welcome email.
